American Children in Poverty on the Rise

Annie Gowen, The Washington Post: "A growing number of American children are living in poverty and with unemployed parents, and are facing the threat of hunger, according to a new federal report released yesterday. According to 'America's Children: Key National Indicators of Well-Being,' 18 percent of all children 17 and under were living in poverty in 2007 - up from 17 percent in 2006."

Boxer Faces "Challenge of a Lifetime" on Climate Change Bill

Rob Hotakainen, McClatchy Newspapers: "If the Senate doesn't pass a bill to cut global warming, Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer says, there will be dire results: droughts, floods, fires, loss of species, damage to agriculture, worsening air pollution and more. She says there's a huge upside, however, if the Senate does act: millions of clean-energy jobs, reduced reliance on foreign oil and less pollution for the nation's children."

Now Can We Investigate?

William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: "President Obama is in the process of losing what may be the most important argument of his young administration. The argument is not about health care, bank bailouts, the economy, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, the environment or the auto industry, though arguments on these issues are indeed ongoing and hanging in the balance. No, the Obama administration is losing the argument about the past being less important than the future."

Obama's Tortured Democracy

Henry A. Giroux, Truthout: "By refusing to release photos of those tortured by US forces, Obama sadly continues yet another element of the Bush regime, organized around an attempt to regulate the visual field, to mandate what can be seen and modify the landscape of the sensible and visible. And equally important, as Judith Butler points out, the Obama administration's application of the state-secrecy privilege grants it the power to determine 'which lives count as human and as living, and which do not.'"

This $17 Trillion Divorce Won't Be a Pretty One

Mortgage defaults spread as even 'safe' borrowers falter

No longer is the real estate bust simply the result of exotic, subprime loans that doubled payments and blew up in homeowners' faces.

Credit Losses Rising Anywhere and Everywhere

The delinquency rate on U.S. mortgages surged to a record 9.12 percent in the first quarter of this year. Late payments rose in ALL categories, including prime fixed-rate loans, the absolute "cream of the crop" in the mortgage world.

US Needs to Listen to President Arias on its Role in Latin America

What Arias does say is: "This year alone, the governments of Latin America will spend nearly $50 billion on their armies. That's nearly double the amount spent five years ago, a ridiculous sum in a region where 200 million people live on fewer than $2 a day and where only Colombia is engaged in an armed conflict."

The More Things "Change"...

By Tim Gatto

The truth is that political parties don't run this country, money does. Our entire political system is based on wealth. This has been true in some degree since the day we gained our independence, but it has never been as apparent as it is now.

Practically On The Table'

By Ralph Nader

Face it, America. You are a corporate-controlled country with the symbols of democracy in the constitution and statutes just that - symbols of what the founding fathers believed or hoped would be reality.
